I am day 10 post op with 300 cc moderate implants, and I notice that my boobs have a cone-like shape, like a Hersey's Kiss - especially on a profile. How long will it take till my boobs appear normal, and in some cases does this cone shape not go away?
Answer: Hershey Kiss Breasts Thank you for your question.You are early in your recovery so patience is a must. It can take between 3 and 6 months for your breasts to heal and settle into position. Continue to follow your surgeons instructions and contact him or her with any concerns. Best of luck and enjoy your results!

Answer: Shape Issue Hello,I believe you've posted before about this. You are way too early to worry about your breast shape. You skin was very tight and inelastic so it will take time for the soft tissue envelope to soften and round. It will look better soon, along with softening and mobility, but could take a year or more to fully change shape.Best of luck!

Answer: Settle You are very early in your healing phase and need time for your tissue to relax, the swelling to subside and the implants to settle. Please follow all your post operative instructions. Please discuss any concerns you have with your surgeon.

Answer: When will my "Hershey's Kiss" boobs look normal? Thank you for your question. Your plastic surgeon will always be your best resource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, advice, predictions, and/or meaningful reassurance.Generally speaking, breast implants will "drop" into the pocket that was created during surgery and massaging the implants downward may assist in the dropping of the implants after surgery (for those patients who want to help with the settling of the implants). The rate of breast implant "settling" may depend on factors such as size of breast implant pocket dissected, tightness of the overlying skin/muscle layers, size of breast implant utilized, and concerns such as pre-existing breast asymmetry.Normally, it takes about 3-6 months (for some patients longer) to see the final result. It is very common for one side to settle faster than the other. Although I cannot provide you with meaningful reassurance that you will be pleased with the outcome of surgery, I can assure you that your breasts will change over the course of the next several months. Therefore, time and patience will be your "best friends" going forward.
